Learning.

To be completely honest,
I hate myself just as much as you did.
And to tell the truth completely,
I had to die before I learned to live.

I'm not the girl I was a week ago.
And that girl isn't me.
I haven't changed at all
Back then I was just asleep.

You might think I'm losing my mind.
But for the first time I really don't care.
Because this is the first time
I've ever thought you weren't there.

When I fell down, I fell down hard.
And its hurts to hit the bottom.
And because I know you're what got me here
I have to thank my own legs for learning to walk again.

To say that I'm completely dead and gone
Could not be further from the truth.
Because now I know my life is worth living
And thats from the mistakes I made with you.                     

Please tell me what you think

    The winds of change can be harsh, so be sure you're doing it for all the right reasons.

    My favorite stanza in this was the first ("I had to die before I learned how to live").

    Well penned, my friend.
